    My Dear Friends, We finally landed today at rainbow bridge. It went quite smooth. We drove to the American side, where we were guided to another building for checkings. It took about an hour to finish the work there. Then we were guided back to the Canadian side. We paid 4 CAD fee for crossing...

    Thank you my friend. I hope we both get the PR soon. Well, that is a good question. One might think that CIC loved us so much that could not let our application go. But a more realistic explanation is the expiry date of our permits. Our permits were expiring end of Jan 2015 and probably they...

    My E-cas is updated and it is funny. The first 2 line says, We have received you application on April 2013. We started processing your application on Feb 2015. And yes, it is decision made now.

    Thank for your kind messages and congrats to those who gor PPR, PER or PR :D I just noticed they have updated the processing time of visa offices for PR, including CPC. To my surprise, the processing time has increased from 25 to 27!! Is it some kind of joke that suppose to prevent people from...

    I have sent them the scans before, I guess they need the originals. They should have told me 6 months ago when I submitted the scans!

    While every one is getting their PPR, we got a PCC request today! Well Done!

    I think they have different assessments. When you get the information, there are several criteria that you have to pass. I have received the points and some evaluations. Yet, it seems not to be what eligibility means. I have my medicals passes, but eligibility and criminality in progress. As I...

    Thank you for your suggestion. However, I think going to MP might not work as well. You have to spend a lot of time to establish contact with them and at the end, they will tell you that you file is in progress and you have to wait, nothing more. I have not seen any case in which MPs could...

    I received my latest ATIP information today. Not much changed. Criminality is still in progress (I wonder if that remains the same till the end?), but eligibility has changed from "not started" to "in progress". It is amazing how fast they work. The due date for eligibility was in May and there...

    Thank you very much for your kind words. I just think it is not fair this way. Not that I don't want other people to get it fast, but why should I wait more that double the time? I originally applied March 2012 and got rejected exactly 1 year after, telling my NOC code was wrong, and now this! I...

    You are possibly right. I am just getting too tired of waiting :( People applied a year or more after me got it already, while it is the same for me still :(

    I am sorry that I scared you guys. I was talking about PPR, not the initial acceptance. I do not have a link, but I know they have a goal for the number of people receiving permanent residency each year. Once that quota is full, all remaining applications are forwarded to the year after. The...

    It seems that the quota for permanent residency is full for this year. If I am right, we should not expect to receive the PPR before 2015!

    I know it looks not fair, but there have been cases that people redid their medicals. Remember, permanent residency is a privilege, not a right!
